Stuck at the Fork in the Road
Now, I feel stuck at a crossroads.
My daughter is raised, graduated from college, married a wonderful man who takes great care of her and now is pregnant with her first child. I reached the pinnacle of my career and felt disillusioned. The corporate world sucked out my soul so I decided to leave and take a year off to feed my soul and determine what was next.
At the same time, my mother-in-law needed care and transportation to lots of doctor appointments so I took that on and found joy and satisfaction in helping her.
I need to generate some income but certainly not as much as I did, but what do I want to do next? I hear so many voices and choices. Nothing that has come to mind feels like - that's it! Part of me wants to do an about-face, a complete 180 and do something completely different than what I have been doing in the advertising world.
And this is where I am today. Stuck. The possibilities are endless and I don't know what direction to take.
Open to suggestions.
